Definitions

  • the invention relates to a racket for a ball game, in particular a tennis racket with a frame consisting of racket head, shaft and handle, the handle of which is adjustable relative to the racket head.
  • a tennis racket of the type mentioned is known from German utility model 77 17 463.
  • the handle is gradually adjustable via a snap connection, so that the racket can be used with different settings. This is particularly useful for practicing backhand play.
  • the well-known tennis racket has not proven itself, however, since the adjustment is time-consuming and because it is only possible in stages and thus at predetermined angles. In addition, wear occurs in the area of the teeth with prolonged use, which loosens the handle parts. Finally, the manufacture is also expensive.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a racket for a ball game, in particular tennis racket, the handle can be adjusted continuously relative to the racket head, which can be manufactured inexpensively and the adjustment mechanism is as easy to use as possible.
  • the invention provides that the handle and the club head can be non-positively connected with respect to one another with respect to their angle setting.
  • the non-positive connection allows the fine adjustment of the handle, which can be rotated relative to the club head. It is also easy and inexpensive to manufacture because only smooth contact surfaces are required.
  • a cone is preferably arranged on the shaft of the racket and a conical bore or an inner cone is arranged on the handle. They allow both a good transmission of the transverse forces occurring in the club shaft or handle and, in the relaxed state, a continuous fine adjustment of the club head relative to the handle.
  • a tennis racket 1 consists of a frame 2 with a handle 3, a shaft 4 and a racket head 5 with strings 6.
  • the handle 3 can be rotated continuously relative to the racket head 5 about the longitudinal axis 7 of the racket and can be fastened in any position. With regard to their angle setting and thus to absorb the torsional or torsional forces, the handle 3 and the racket head 5 are non-positively connected to one another.
  • conical or frustoconical surfaces 8 and 9 are provided between the handle 3 and the club head 5.
  • a cone 10 on the shaft 4 and a conical bore 11 or an inner cone 11 on the handle 3 serve to form these surfaces.
  • a threaded bolt 12 is also arranged on the cone 10 of the shaft 4, to which a grip piece 13 with an internal thread 14 belongs on the handle 3.
  • the handle 3 is essentially sleeve-shaped and overlaps the cone 10 with its inner cone 11 Shaft 4 and receives the threaded bolt 12 with a bore 15. With the aid of the handle 13, which can be screwed onto the threaded bolt 12 in the manner of a nut, the handle 3 is fastened to the shaft 4, this being possible in any position after turning the handle 3 and shaft 4.
  • the grip piece 13 is arranged at the grip end 16 and is supported on the longitudinal axis 7 of the stick in the direction of the latter.
  • the handle 13 is profiled on its circumference.
  • FIG. 3 shows a modified embodiment, according to which a handle 18, which also has an internal thread 17 for the threaded bolt 12, is provided, which engages with a sleeve-shaped part 19 in the bore 15 of the handle 3.
  • the sleeve-shaped part 19 has an annular groove 20, into which at least one holding element 21 connected to the handle 3 extends.
  • the holding element 21 is, for example, screwed through the wall 22 of the handle 3 and serves as an abutment when turning or loosening and tightening the handle piece 18.
  • the parts 2o and 21 form a link guide.
  • the conical parts and the threaded bolts are dimensioned according to the forces that occur.
  • a plastic is expediently used as the material, different materials for the cone 10 and the surface of the conical bore 11 being advantageous because of the coefficients of friction.
